Grad party!

May 18, 2009

We had a party with friends and family at our house yesterday to celebrate my graduation from college. It’s unbelievable how fast the past four years have flown by. As usual, it was my goal to fill everyone’s tummy with good food. Here’s what was on the menu:

On the Spanish app table:

Tortilla (Spanish potato omelette)

Manchego (traditional sheep cheese from La Mancha)

Membrillo (quince paste — traditionally paired with manchego)

Spicy Catalan olives

Bread, of course

Pastelitos de gambas (shrimp egg-roll style bites — learned how to make these in Madrid) *
